  61. with him, and he said, let me go, for the

  62. day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee

  63. go except thou bless me. And he said unto him,

  64. what is thy name? And he said Jacob. And he said,

  65. thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel.

  66. For as a prince, hast thou power with God and

  67. with men, And hast prevailed. And Jacob asked him and said,

  68. tell me, I pray thee thy name. And he said,

  69. wherefore is it that thou? Is it that thou dost

  70. ask after my name? And he blessed him there, and

  71. Jacob called the place the name of that place Penel,

  72. for I have seen God face to face.

  73. And my life is preserved.

  74. And as he passed over Penal, the son rose upon him,

  75. and he halted upon his thigh.

  76. Amen, I'd like you to keep that verse right there

  77. in mind.

  83. seven through ten, My brother, And they.

  84. Carried the ark of God in a new cart out

  85. of the house of Benedet. And as a court and David,

  86. all of Israel played before God with their might and

  87. with singing, and with harps, and with sultry, and with timbrels,

  88. and with symbols and with trumpets. And when they came

  89. unto the threshold of Chida, on Uza put forth his

  90. hand to hold the art for the oxen. The oxen stumbled,

  91. and the angle of the Lord kindled against Uzzah, and

  92. he smote him because he put forth his hand to

  93. the art, and there before got there, and there he

  94. died before God.

  95. Oh yes, Amen.

  96. There the Bible tells us a little bit about a

  97. story we're familiar with. And I've read the account of

  98. that story in Kings.

  99. Amen.

  100. And it doesn't give us the description of why Usa

  101. had to do what he did.

  102. Amen.

  103. But first Caronicles tells us the oxen stumbled.

  104. Amen.

  105. And this is what led to us, Amen, making the

  106. grave and terrible mistake.

  107. Amen. He did.

  108. I mean, I'm gonna preach just for a little while Amen,

  109. a message the Lord titled out of out of step,

  110. but in tune. Amen, go with me to Ezekiel chapter

  111. number eleven. We're gonna read ninth Versus nineteen through twenty one,

  112. and the Bible said, I will give them one heart,

  113. and I will put a new spirit within you. And

  114. I will take the stony heart out of their flesh,

  115. and will give them a heart of flesh, that they

  116. may walk in my statutes and keep mine ordinances. That

  117. they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances

  118. and do them, and they shall be my people, and

  119. I will be their God. But as for them whose

  120. heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and

  121. their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads.

  122. Saith the Lord God. Amen, stretch your hands forward Heaven.

  123. Ask God to help us this morning.

  124. Lord. We thank you God that we are in your house. God.

  125. We thank you for truth and righteousness. We thank you

  126. for your words. God. We thank you for each one

  127. but's here. God.

  128. We thank you Lord that we can't stand on these

  129. Truth God, that are self evidence. God. They are here

  130. before us God, and we can plainly see God. Your promises, Lord,

  131. your words your warnings. God, would you come, by Lord

  132. and speak to your children this morning. Please anoint God

  133. this message. God. Let it go through a fourth God,

  134. and do what you would have it accomplished.

  135. God.

  136. Let every stronghold God be pulled down in every chain broken.

  137. God, through your anointing power.

  138. God, we ask you help us, God, to say nothing

  139. more and nothing less than you would have us.

  140. God.

  141. Lord God, let us lead this place joyfully and not sorrowfully,

  142. and we'll give you the glory, the honor, and the

  143. praise in Jesus Holy Holy Name. And the church said,

  144. Amen and Amen. I thank God, Amen for always doing here.

  145. I thank God for the words of God that we

  146. can go back and look at. Amen, And they give

  147. us clarity Amen on some things.

  148. Amen.

  149. You know the Bible Amen, has never left a Christian wondering.

  150. Amen.

  151. The Bible has never left someone saying, well, what's truth

  152. and what's righteousness? It paints a very black and white picture.

  153. Amen.

  154. And you can tell clearly, Amen, the defined lines of

  155. which God has asked his people to walk in.

  156. Amen.

  157. Now, this book of the Bible, as pastor would say,

  158. it bears the name of its author. I've always loved that, Aman,

  159. this book of the Bible. Its name kind of acts

  160. as a prologue to the book and prepares the reader

  161. to listen in or read the heartfelt messages, prophecies, promises,

  162. and warnings of the mighty Prophet. Ezekiel. Now he was

  163. a descendant of the well known and very influential priestly family,

  164. that family of Zadok the priest and Amen, he would

  165. have been reared and raised, most likely in Jerusalem and

  166. was well versed in the rituals of the Temple of

  167. Jehovah or Yah.

  168. He was a priest in training.

  169. But we find later on he would be a prophet

  170. by calling.

  171. Amen.

  172. We know of other men, Amen, such as Ezekiel, that

  173. became a man of prophet by calling.

  174. Such was John the Baptist.

  175. Amen that God would call him out of a priestly

  176. lineage and sent him a min on a path of prophecy,

  177. a man apostle. Paul said he was one born out

  178. of due time, and Ezekiel would have been such a

  179. one before Amen, he was carried into exile here.

  180. Amen, he would have been someone that was.

  181. Learning how to go about and be about the father's

  182. business in the temple.

  183. Amen.

  184. But somewhere around the age of twenty five to thirty,

  185. he receives a heavenly and divine calling. It is an assignment,

  186. and he carried with him through his ministry a great

  187. burden for the people of God. For he knew that

  188. they were going to be held accountable.

  189. Amen.

  190. At a word, even our generation don't like anymore accountability.

  191. Ezekiel had an understanding, and his burden made him Amen

  192. very well and propelled him to preach to a generation

  193. that Amen, he knew was about to be punished for

  194. they were right.

  195. Amen for the judgment of God. Amember.

  196. Also in Ezekiel you find a man that had a

  197. deep held conviction Amen, that there was hope Amen for restoration,

  198. and there was hope for salvation for God's people.

  199. Amen.

  200. And I still believe we find ourselves Amen. Some people

  201. do and in various situations where the Word of God

  202. is applicable to sima in some ways and others in

  203. other ways. Amen, For there is still a message of

  204. regeneration and repentance that is being preached that Amen is

  205. needed to be heeded by many that are hearing it.

  206. Amen. And then there are also amen, words of promise. Amen.

  207. In prophecy that there is a grater revival coming, and

  208. the Lord is about to hope, and the windows of

  209. heaven and pour out of blessing him.

  210. Amen.

  211. So David Ezekiel, rather we saw him in his heart

  212. as he poured into the people of God, starting about

  213. at the age of twenty five to thirty. Amen, he

  214. begins to be about the Father's business and to herald

  215. the great warnings and the great messages and all that

  216. God would put in his heart. He began to speak

  217. into the life of these captives here in Babylon. He

  218. would warn the of Amen to turn from sin, and

  219. he would encourage them to look to God.

  220. Amen.

  221. Some people turned from one sin, Amen, and find themselves

  222. in another cesspool because they didn't put their affections in hope, Amen,

  223. in something that was better, Amen, in something that could

  224. have helped them to overcome what they were dealing with.

  225. Amen. And Ezekiel Amen was a man that had the solution. Amen.

  226. And we know what the solution is even today. It's Jesus, Amen.

  227. For those that have turning aside and given up and

  228. those that are going to the wayside. The solution, I

  229. believe it might have been Brother Samuel. They been preests

  230. on salvation. A man is still the solution, and it

  231. still is today for every Amen, person that's struggling to

  232. live holy, every person that can't quite.

  233. Get a hold of what they need. Amen. Yeah, they

  234. come and act religious. Amen.

  235. And the Jews, no, Dad would have been no different.

  236. These Israelites, they men would have been living in Babylon, claiming, Amen,

  237. we have Abraham to our Father. I mean we have

  238. this prophet and this judge to our Father. I mean

  239. he's in our lineage. He was somebody and God worked

  240. through him.

  241. Amen.

  242. But what they were for missing, they man, what they

  243. needed was a relationship with God. For in Babylon they

  244. begin to take on baggage and to take on bondage.

  245. They were already under bondage, but they begin to experience

  246. spiritual bondage. And there's many a person that darken as

  247. the doors the church, and they come in and they've

  248. yet to have a new heart.

  249. They've yet to undergo.

  250. They made a new heart, Transplanta, and Dear this morning,

  251. I preach it theymen under you.

  252. The men, too many are in step with the world.

  253. Too many are walking according to the lust of the

  254. flesher and fulfeeling the desires arrive, they man. And when

  255. you're in step with the world, they man, you were

  256. attitude with God. When you're in step with the world,

  257. you are no longer in touch with God. For here

  258. the love of the world, they man. The love of

  259. the Father is not anybody you can't come professing. They

  260. mean to be God's child. When you're living like the

  261. world and in tune with the world, your emotions are

  262. knit to them. They are your near kinsmen. They man

  263. your mindset. It's like theirs, they man. The way you

  264. live is like theirs. What you do on a weekly

  265. basis that man, there's no different than what they're doing.

  266. Don't claim to be in Israelie.

  267. When you're living like bah blah Lord, ay man, don't

  268. claim to be God's child. And they mean to be

  269. expiriting the blessings of God. When your heart tells on

  270. you that it's stony, when you need a new one,

  271. ay man, If you ain't got a new hard, you'll

  272. find it harder to walk in His priests, Aft saymen

  273. now verse number nineteen. And I will give them one heart,

  274. and I will put a new spirit within you, and

  275. I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh,

  276. and We'll give them a heart of flesh. Now this

  277. verse is prophetic in its nature. Amen, And it is

  278. now realized Amen. Among the children of God. It is

  279. the hope, Amen, that more excellent calling. Theymen that Jesus

  280. would come and die, Amen, and he would offer us

  281. something new Amen. And they said it this morning, he

  282. would offer us something better.

  283. Amen.

  284. And God is offering us all, Amen, a new opportunity,

  285. a new heart. Remember too many or to content with

  286. the stony heart, with that heart that can't be touched

  287. by God's word, that heart that is no longer sensitive

  288. to the spirit. They come to God's house and the

  289. message can't touch them, The song service can't move them.

  290. The altar service never changes them. Women, friend, if you're

  291. that manner of person, a man, and you never feel

  292. the need to come down here without being drug out,

  293. being drug here, I mean there's something wrong. I've never

  294. too been too big. The man are too great in

  295. God to find an altar of repentance. But there's many

  296. a stony heart that comes into God's house and pretend

  297. they don't need the words of God and the man

  298. of God and the amen they ever did or the

  299. Holy ghost in their lives. Matter what they are is

  300. they're a dead person. We mean they are that white

  301. of sepulcura. Remember, there's nothing popping life inside. There's nothing

  302. a man of spiritual nature that's a stirring and a

  303. moving there. A stony harder ain't never pumped to drop

  304. a liquidor that's a rocker. A man outside of the

  305. goodness of God has never rudded forth a man living

  306. Liquidor remember when God got a hold of it, even

  307. in Moses's day, he took that which should not have

  308. we maan it contain something of life in it, a man,

  309. and he made it live, He made it breathe, He

  310. made an issue forth an the words of life. Man,

  311. if you're here this morning and you ain't felt God

  312. this week, and you ain't felt God this morning, we

  313. may now tell you what's wrong with you.

  314. A man.

  315. You're still living in in old nature. You're still living

  316. in a stony harder. You're still living without the life

  317. giving power of God. And you depend on that stony

  318. harder to get you through. But what you need is

  319. the power of God. Some seem to get the cart

  320. before the horse. Amen, pardon me, for a moment. Some

  321. seem to get their cart before the horse, and they

  322. attempt to come to church and be spiritual, and all

  323. they got is stony, I mean.

  324. Old hard, Amen. Heart. You can't be led of God

  325. with a heart like that. Amen. You can't live during

  326. the week with a heart like that.

  327. But they love to come on Sunday and Wednesday and

  328. for tend like they've got what they need. And Amen,

  329. they know good and well they've been living like the

  330. devil in the week.

  331. Aymen, Praise God. What are they doing?

  332. They're getting the amen their righteousness Amen, before regeneration.

  333. Amen. And there is still a.

  334. Man of God in heaven that would like to impart

  335. under you of his nature and creating you a new

  336. and a clean Oh God. Amen, you ever amen, thought

  337. about those two words, A new and a clean old God.

  338. He'll do Amen for you what he's done for so

  339. many others.

  340. Amen.

  341. It'll be a new way of talking, a new way

  342. of walking, a new way of thinking, Oh God. But

  343. too many continue to live Amen. And the old mindset

  344. with the old heart. Remember then they come to God's

  345. house and pretend like they've got a hold of the spirit.

  346. Amen.

  347. But the Bible said, Amen, you praise God. Those amen

  348. that'll let of the Lord are the sons of God

  349. and God that lead them to cuss on Monday. And

  350. God didn't lead them to cuss on Tuesday. But then

  351. they come to his house and pretend they've.

  352. Got his power.

  353. You ain't got nothing but an old that's writing stony

  354. heart and man, when you're living like the devil, you're

  355. living in the old man, in the old nature. A man,

  356. I'll tell you what's wrong with you. You've yet to be regenerated.

  357. And you claim the power of God. Man, you claim

  358. the anointing of God. When you're living like the world,

  359. you're on your way to.

  360. A devil's hell. If that's your lifestyle.

  361. If that's the way you move and walker in him,

  362. I move live and have my big Amen. He's never

  363. made because or to listen to a worldly's dog, he's

  364. never made begin a latitude.

  365. Ay, I feel about like preaching writing you're out of

  366. step with the spirit.

  367. Hey, you know they ever heard him say my spirit animal.

  368. There's Christians supposedly in the church and their spirit animal

  369. brother Caleb is an octopus for everything that's going on

  370. in the world. They seem to know about it. They

  371. seem to know what singer put out the new song

  372. they man, they seem to know what the new fashion is.

  373. They seem to know, Amen, what the latest lingo is.

  374. I'll tell you what your spirit animal is.

  375. The man.

  376. You're too in tune with the world. You're into in

  377. touch with them. And there ain't no way on God's

  378. green Earth or his holy Heaven.

  379. That you have what you professor.

  380. Waymen, when you possess a Amen, an old stony heart

  381. and a sin nature that encourages you to live like

  382. the world during the week and then try to pretend

  383. to be God's child on the Lord's day, I gotta hurry.

  384. Galatians five and sixteen said.

  385. This. I say, then walk in the spirit, and you

  386. shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

  387. Amen. If you're struggling.

  388. To live according to God's word and it's hard for you,

  389. You've got to learn how to walk in the spirit,

  390. to be sensitive to his voice, to be sensitive to

  391. your conscience. Amen, to line up with the words of

  392. God and put on the mind of Christ. Well, how

  393. do I do that? A good place to start and

  394. start lining up with his words and his instructions to

  395. start lining up with the amen what God delivers you

  396. on a weekly bathist amen from your pastor in this

  397. poopy andy, man, you're gonna stay out of touch with

  398. God and out of tune with the spirit of the

  399. men as Lord as you're trying to stay up with

  400. and keep up with the joneses, as long as you're

  401. trying to keep up with the car worker on the job.

  402. They meen, and it's a competition for you. They meant

  403. to tell the nastiest joker. It's a competition for you

  404. the meen to have the dirtiest in your window. Oh God, man,

  405. you ain't saved. They met no more than the devil

  406. wheels when you'd rather be in touch with Hell. Ain't

  407. hurrymen shielded they met, But then pretend you've got something

  408. on Sunday.

  409. Amen, I got cutting met this morning. That's all right.

  410. You ever seen them?

  411. People say, I don't understand it, and pastors talked us

  412. about this. In my eyes were open. I remember as

  413. a young man, I don't get it. I don't understand it.

  414. And then a meen he brought that stripture amen from

  415. the pool pit that opened my eyes so wonderfully.

  416. Some things are spiritually deserned. Amen.

  417. Sometimes you need that regeneration to understand why it's important.

  418. Sometimes you need that new heart. And it does away

  419. with the questions. Amen, it does away with all that's

  420. going on in your mind, that whirlwind.

  421. Amen.

  422. If you'll get the spirit of God and you'll get

  423. a new heart, Amen, some things just come so easy Aymen.

  424. For his children, he empowers them, Amen, and gives them

  425. what they need.

  433. the coworkers on the job, Amen, then be a Christian.

  434. I've never struggled with that. Amen. I've never been intimidated

  435. or Aymen.

  436. Self peer pressure pushed me to a point where I

  437. said I'd rather lose Jesus Aymen, to fit in in

  438. this lunch hour, of this thirty minutes. I mean, oh

  439. what Amen, A simple mindset we can have and mean

  440. when we forsake the precepts of God, they mean just

  441. to fit in with those around us, Amen, and the

  442. Israelites moved down to Babylon. They're in exile. And in

  443. one place, it says the men they were living in

  444. their own houses, and man, they were on the they

  445. were kind of.

  446. On their own time.

  447. Yet in exile. Amen, and they begin to adapt to

  448. the customs. This was many a downfall. That mean for

  449. many a generation, the men of the children of Israel,

  450. when they begin to adapt to the world, and what

  451. does the world begin to do? And the church? Amen,

  452. they begin to conform to each other. The men they're

  453. living like one another, man yet claiming they still have God.

  454. And in the Bible does speak of a way that

  455. seemth unto a man who talks of a broadway. A

  456. man he talks of a path. They man that he

  457. ends in destruction. They man, praise God to us. No surprise,

  458. they man, that the majority of people seem to.

  459. Be on this path.

  460. It's no surprise to me that the majority of the

  461. majority of them out there. They men are living like

  462. they're living. They men are walking like they're walking, and

  463. they're talking like they're talking.

  464. The men.

  465. But the problem is the church world. They man now says,

  466. I can be a Christian and do the same a

  467. man has in wrong the man, I live like a Roman,

  468. and while in Babylona, I worship like a Babylona, all

  469. the compromising spirit of name.

  470. And when he said, wink upon me, they may look

  471. upon me.

  472. Kindly pray that God would overlook me when my master

  473. goes to his temple. What about you, friend the man?

  474. Will they man nod your head and bob you head?

  475. Amen to the bosses music, because you're right with the

  476. fitanda man where you bopped your head? Amen, praise God

  477. and agree with the feeldy language that comes across the stereo.

  480. the world. When you're beginning, Amen, to act like of her.

  481. You're beginning, Amen, to blend in with him and what

  482. you're doing the whole time he is getting out of touch.

  483. With the spirit. You're starting to walk in the flesh. Man.

  484. You're not walking in the spirit. Man, you're living according

  485. to your desires and your whims and what the devil

  486. and his shielding are doing. When your reasoning becomes altered

  487. and your thought process begins to allign with those on

  488. the broadway, when the way you think in the life

  489. you lead, a man has more in common with the

  490. world and its agenda. I mean, you have sadly been affected.

  491. You'd be surprised how many people claim to be Christians

  492. and sit on church pews and they feel like they're

  493. Amen's thought process aligns more with the abortion clinics and men.

  494. You'd be surprised how many men come to church and

  495. they say the music identify with the most Brother Caleb.

  496. Amen. Is that song that secular singer road?

  497. Why is that? And why do you identify with that?

  498. Why is your thought process aligning with?

  499. Amen? The world? Women? Why is what you do on

  500. a weekly basis?

  501. Theymen measured and graded by the world standers women. When

  502. you're walking in such a lifestyle, the men, you are

  503. forsaking the love of the Father.

  504. When you begin to love theymen and treasure aymen.

  505. Praise God. Depend on the men. What's going on in

  506. the world to give you sustenance?

  507. Amen.

  508. And you get more out of tik Taker women than

  509. you do the Word of God. When you get more

  525. They're walking according to the lust of the flesher and

  526. fulfilling the.

  527. Pride their rival in their own life.

  544. to talk to them about her who man, how they

  545. should walk and live, and how God was a jealous

  546. god and he would have no other gods before him,

  547. and men they begin to conform. They mean, we know

  548. of the spiritual ramifications of the men, what the Bible

  549. call spiritual adulta. That men, when we began to have

  566. there is a serena of a second looker, Amen. Him.

  567. Too many people are finding themselves in trouble on their

  568. masks because when they went by, they went back and

  569. found it. I'll tell you what you are. You're a

  570. spiritual horn monger. God sees you no different to try you,

  571. and God heead watched you do it. They saw you

  572. do it, Amen, and they said, I will have.

  573. No barder in him.

  575. who is turning back under the weakened, beggarly hllments up

  576. this world like a dog to the vomited. You return,

  577. Oh God, I wish somebody'd help me preach for just

  583. estate woman that is dedicated to him, with your old mastery,

  584. dirty stone harder, pretending like you're a diamond in the ruffa. Remember,

  585. if you're a living like the world, you are no

  590. be nothing more than powder. There will be no more

  591. stability or strengthen them to do what they want to

  592. and I will smash them, obliterate them, and destroy them.

  593. Oh God, Hellelujah, I gotta hurry, Amen who I'm on

  597. You want to hear more preaching, or go to the

  598. chicken house, and the church said chicken house. Amen, Praise God.

  599. We missed our pastor this morning so much. The modern

  600. church world presents a halt and withered gospel, one where

  601. we have no power to live above sin. They preach

  602. a Bethesda doctrine, and Brother Jonathan, they preach a man.

  603. A lame man that would have laid there all his life.

  604. That's the gospel they preach.

  605. A man.

  606. They preach a gospel where the saint hobbles the they

  607. been bound with drug addiction. They preach a gospel where

  608. the saint battle and then stumbles in and still with

  609. his alcoholism, and here is condemned, Aymen, Praise God. Penance

  610. is to lay there on the porches.

  611. Oh God, I'm telling you.

  612. God has never required penance on the porch, aymen. But

  613. He has preached to all Amen, and heralded to all

  614. through his servants that there is power to live and

  615. walk above the sin line. So don't you come to

  616. me this morning, aymen, and tell me you're a halt

  617. saint and you're a withered Christian when God said you

  618. can live above it? And howard to have power to

  619. walk over it?

  620. Amen? Oh God?

  621. They come Amen, bit by the serpenta. Remember God's children

  622. wouldn't be so.

  623. Amen.

  624. They come boys, and by sin theymen. But God's people

  625. wouldn't be so. So what he is, aymen? Praise God?

  626. They evidenceer Amen. At the end of the conclusion, if

  627. he gave them power to tread on it, and he

  628. gave them power Amen to not be Amen.

  629. Praise God. Amen, Praise God.

  630. Affected by her aymen, these poisons of the world.

  631. Amen.

  632. And they come in harder and withrough and bothered. They

  633. are none of his. They men, they have not lived

  634. according to His word. They men, when they come in

  635. found they've been going places they shouldn't have winn. When

  636. you come to God's house and you know, Amen, you

  637. and God, the spirit of God when it blows through

  638. the house and forwarding in fifty shower, Remember you sit there.

  639. You're out of touch with God. You're out of step

  640. with His spirit. But I'd rather be out of step.

  641. With the world.

  642. Were in turned with a spirit, I'd rather be out

  643. of step with this old, filthy, disgusting Worldmen, to be

  644. endurned with a spirit. Of your spiritual condition tells on

  645. you when you have no power, you have no strengthen

  646. when you're an.

  647. Old, withered, puny soul.

  648. But needs regeneration. It is now a church world. Well,

  649. you can't tell where Babylon ends and the church begins.

  650. It is now profession Christians.

  651. And man.

  652. And you can't tell where l G B t Q

  654. It is now with church.

  655. Amen.

  656. World where you can't tell where the Friday night pub

  657. ended and Sunday morning service started.

  658. Amen. That is a problem, friend, they been when we walk.

  659. More according to the world and her desires and her

  660. mindsets and thought processes. Amen, I'll tell you what the

  661. issue is. You might even have a form Amen, but

  662. you have no power. And there's a lot of them

  663. claim the power and have no form a Man, I

  664. don't care which one you are. If you're a charismatic

  665. that says they've got the power and they've got no form, Amen,

  666. they've got no praise God, representation of Jesus and his word,

  667. they still claim.

  668. To have what they have. Or you're in here then

  669. this morning and.

  670. You've got the garb of God's child on Amen, but

  671. you have no power. You should feel the spirit of

  672. God bloid in the song service, and you should feel

  673. a twinge of the spirit.

  674. Amen. Tickle your Holy ghost. Amen.

  675. Shouting bonner Amen in the middle of a message. Amen,

  676. Praise God. You know I'm in tune with what's going on.

  677. Aymen.

  678. It's speaking to me and our spirits are bearing witness.

  679. Man.

  680. If you come to God's house, they men, Brother Philip,

  681. and they never feel like they bore witness with what

  682. was said. They men, but they're always in contradiction up here.

  683. I'll tell you your problem.

  684. They men.

  685. You ain't serving the same master and you don't have

  686. the same God. They man, you're walking according to principalities

  687. and powers and the rulers of darkness.

  688. Of this world.

  689. That men, when you identify with and would rather be

  690. praise God, Amen at the world he restaurant.

  691. They men.

  692. Where they've got the music turned up, remember them singing

  693. our fly away And men, when you got rear buds in,

  694. if you've got more of a bee baha and a

  695. pepper and your steppa to a secular singer and that

  696. car sterio, it's blasting out the latest or the devil's

  697. possessed people. And that's when you feel like you fit in,

  698. and that's when you feel like you've really made something.

  699. Of your cell.

  700. The man, your issue is we're out of touch with

  701. the spirit of women and your in tune with the world.

  702. Your tenacins wrapped around women, praise God, things, rust of

  703. the flesh and desires, Oh God. And the issue is

  704. that man, it won't be too long and they'll grab

  705. you back and you won't get free if they haven't already. Women,

  706. that half you'll get a hold of you, and you

  707. can't let it go. That genre will get a hold

  708. of you, and you won't be better release it, but

  709. it'll breed women things of its nature in your heart

  710. you'll leave behind them in the things of the sea

  711. is faster, once said the man. They will be the

  712. evidences what the world in your life as it strangles

  713. the life out of you and leaves you back in

  714. a dead stay. Amen o God shore, do you walk

  715. out of step with the world?

  716. It matter?

  717. Have you begun to step in time? Do you find

  718. yourself marching to the rhythm of the bide Piper's melody?

  719. Do you find.

  720. Define Friday by the world's definition? It's your definition of

  721. a good day metered by Babilon's description? Does Babilons description

  722. of fashion?

  723. Amen?

  724. Meeter her and in your attire? I know, Amen, Praise God.

  725. I'm trying to make some enemies this morning. I guess

  726. h it mean I'm trying my best to share a

  727. burden with you.

  728. I'm trying my best.

  729. And in the minute that's the truth of the word

  730. of God is a new heart that they may walk

  731. in My statutes and keep my ordinances. So without the

  732. new heart, you ain't gonna do it. You'll be a pharisee.

  733. And what the pharisee when it came down to them

  734. fulfilling their office, even their heart condemned them, and they

  735. cannot follow through with their role. Your heart tells you,

  736. your hypocrite. Your heart tells you when you've messed up

  737. and missed it.

  738. Amen.

  739. And then in that moment when you were supposed to

  740. tell that Amen, co worker on the job, Jesus loves you,

  741. and he's not happy about that. And you know good

  742. and well you listen to the same garbage on the

  743. way in the work, and man, you can't condemn him

  744. in his sin when you've got it living in you.

  745. And there's a whole church world that because they Amen,

  746. can offer a word of conviction.

  747. Amen, not condemnation, but conviction. Amen.

  748. They just said, why can'tah Amen beat them? So I'll

  749. join them instead, Amen. And that's why the child world

  750. looks like Babylon, because nobody they man had the power Amen,

  751. in the authority and the relationship with God to stand

  752. up and say, Amen.

  753. That was wrong. We all know it was wrong. We

  754. saw you living like that in the week. Amen. Praise God.

  755. There Amen, there he is, Amen. Praise God.

  756. A word of God that goes forth based on what

  757. the preacher man saw.

  758. Amen.

  759. And there's a lot of pastors that aren't willing to

  760. preach about what they saw.

  761. God gave you I gaze for a reason, Amen.

  762. And God gave the minister and the messenger of God Amen, eyesight,

  763. because without the eyesight, Amen, you and the minister would

  764. fall in the So don't fault him when he sees

  765. you living like the devil and tells you, Amen, we'll

  766. have none of that here.

  767. Amen. For God gave him.

  768. Eyesight and spiritual vision for this same reason, that he

  769. might look over the floka and see the one that's

  770. straying and correct and chasing them back in to lie. Remember,

  771. too many get too up tied about when the minister

  772. talks to them. They get a oh God, Amen, they

  773. get right down. They'men angry about it, and they fume

  774. and they message him afterwards.

  775. Amen, and that this is the problem. I tell you

  776. what it is.

  777. They man, you're walking according to the lust of the

  778. flesher man. When you can't receive correction to women when

  779. you're on pins and needles, waiting for offense or the remen.

  780. The Bible says, you're harder to be one of the

  781. fence city women. So when does the pastor quit wasting

  782. his arrows on you, those arrows of love? When does

  783. he quit besieging your city and your heart?

  784. Woman?

  785. Because you're so obstinate and resistive to the words of God.

  786. Ezekiel is talking to him and telling them, I see

  787. you need something. You need something to come God. You

  788. need to turn aside. Oh such a water. Stop Wait

  789. a minute, women, let me tell you what you need

  790. to do. Remember they were running a headlong into women,

  791. God's judgment and wrath remen and God told him in

  792. one place they been, your house will be a cauldron,

  793. and you'll be the flesher. He's gonna boil you right

  794. where you sit and right where you're living. He's gonna

  795. make a beginning. Then when he does make that beginning,

  796. he is a god that makes an end women very quickly.

  797. When God's judgment starts, women, God will make an end

  798. to women your parnismanty man, that they may walk in

  799. my statue and keep my ordinances and do them. God

  800. gave them a new heart that they might not fulfill

  801. the lust of the flesh.

  802. Amen.

  803. But many claim a new heart, but the old walk.

  804. And men many claim, Amen, a new heart, but the

  805. old walk. And then there was a say it Amen,

  806. and I picked up the origins. Amen, I believe. And

  807. then the reasons some of them prenecostal preachers would say it, Amen,

  808. was because of some of the things they were dealing

  809. with in their generation.

  810. Amen. They'd say, I walk right and spit white. Amen.

  811. Because back then there was a many a so called

  812. dipping Christians. Amen, there was a many a so called

  813. amen alcoholic believers.

  814. Amen. Praise God.

  815. Let that not be named among us a a man.

  816. Praise God, and be not Romans twelve and two. And

  817. be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed

  818. by the renewing of your mind.

  819. This world.

  820. Renewing is G thirty forty in the Stronges concordance. If

  821. you want to check me, it means the renovation, a

  822. complete change for the better, a complete change for the better,

  823. a renovation. Ay, when I'm finding God coming in and

  824. rearranging me, cleaning me up and making me new. Amen,

  825. Praise God, cutting that old nasty heart out. And they'm

  826. been plugging, Amen, something more than a thumping gizzard in there.

  827. Amen. But I mean we've heard it preach before.

  828. Amen, the bad idea of which brought about certain judgment.

  829. I'm gonna have to I may have to skim through this.

  830. I left my phone down there. I don't know what

  831. time it is, Amen. But David made a very very

  832. bad decision. And we all know Amen, what brought about that,

  833. and how the Philistines put it on an arc and

  834. it worked for them. And God used the arc Amen

  835. to get it down to the high else he needed

  836. it to go to. And David comes to a point

  837. in his life he finally gets, aymen, what he's been

  838. what he's been a've been waiting on.

  839. He finally gets what he's been needing.

  840. Amen, And he says, you know what, I'd have the

  841. ark of God a man come back to me. And David,

  842. in his efforts a man to bring about a swift

  843. into this, he bypasses the laws of God for God's

  844. people for in in in the fifteenth chapter of this verse,

  845. David admits this, and he says, the reason, I mean,

  846. I'll see if I can find it for because she

  847. did it not at the first the Lord, our God

  848. made a breach upon us for that we sought him,

  849. not after the due order. And David steps back in

  850. chronicles after the fact that he says, the reason God

  851. smote us of was.

  852. Because I put this thing on a card. Amen.

  853. And there's a lot of people Amen, seeking the easy salvation,

  854. easy believism, Amen, an easy walk with God where they

  855. sacrifice nothing and they try to bring about the fruits

  856. in a new convert's life, the easy way. Oh, come

  857. down here, say I believe in Jesus. I believe he

  858. was Amen, dead, barried, resurrected. Oh, I'm saved. I'm shouting happy.

  859. I walk away.

  860. Amen.

  861. David knew Amen, of the revelation of God and of

  862. the long process which a man, a man who would

  863. literally talk face to face with God Amen, had depicted

  865. Amen.

  866. And there are still some though, despite the words of

  867. God and its revelation to us. Amen, they still go

  868. the way they want to go. And David put this

  869. thing on in our on a praise God, a card,

  870. a new card, and he's traps it up to some

  871. auction and he's doing what he does he needs to do.

  872. They're still having church they're still dancing and singing, they're

  873. still sacrificing.

  874. Amen.

  875. But there's something missing, and it's the laws of God

  876. and the commandments of God. And too many say, Amen,

  877. I don't care what the word says.

  878. I know what the spirit told me.

  879. I'll tell you you're out of touch with the Holy

  880. Ghost and in tune with a spirit. If it contradicts anything.

  881. If anyone comes a woman preaching hetory other doctrine than

  882. that which was first delivered under the Saints, you should

  883. count yimccurst. You should plug your ears. You shouldn't hear

  884. his words. You should put up a burrier in a

  885. guard and realize, women, that is a n ip of

  886. hell trying to influence you.

  887. Contrar to the words of God.

  888. If it's Mama or Daddy, cut them off and shut

  889. it off.

  890. They'll affect you drastically. Amen. Praise God.

  891. If it's an elder, even the woman that's supposed to

  899. Them, they say, Brother Caleber, prominent pastor so and so

  902. And they start doing it like the Philistines. Heymen, I'll

  903. tell you who they ben. Praise God started the short

  904. skirt and all this nonsense. It was Philistines. It was Babylon. Remember,

  905. we started living like Babylon, expressly expecting the blessings of God.

  906. David thought he was going to get the power of

  907. God women in his short cuts. Aymen, praise God in

  908. your short cuts. Hey man, you won't ever get the

  909. authority in power of God or the sustenance in his

  910. word or it's blessing on his people. But you'll started losing,

  911. hey man, you're young people. You'll started losing people that

  912. lost their fear for God and his place and his power.

  913. Hey man, Praise God. It is preeminence. And who's he

  914. ain't man?

  915. Praise God.

  916. He saw the ark rocker, heymen, and he crossed the

  917. line he shouldn't have because the oxen stomboled us have

  918. put forth his hand to hold the ark for the

  919. oxen stumbled. David opened the doors. He chose to do

  920. it the way of the world, and then his plan

  921. was to get it done the quick and easy and

  922. painless way.

  923. But oh, how it backfires. Amen.

  924. Parents are forsaking their responsibilities that they may remain friends.

  925. Pastors are sinking the requirements that they may remain politician.

  926. And men.

  927. David tried to get it done quick and easy. A man,

  928. he didn't try to put no burden undue strain. I'm

  929. en sure the church feels. Amen, the burden and the pressure. Amen,

  930. as God begins to try to build someone up. But

  931. there's a lot of pastors don't like it. Aymen, anybody

  932. feeling any kind of strain. They remember, since when has

  933. it been wrong? They mean for us to be called

  934. up higher and called to a higher place with God.

  935. They mean David here did it his way, and the

  936. issue was someone overreached.

  937. Amen.

  938. Parents, Amen, we must still use, Amen, the right of God,

  939. even if it makes the counsel they been praise God

  940. of the house uncomfortable. Oh God, Amen, Parents, we must

  941. still correct and chase it.

  942. They been be times the men.

  943. There's a whole generation, Brother Caleb, aymen, and you know it,

  944. and I know it. Ur whole generation knows that we're

  945. living in turmo in this society because parents wanted to

  946. be close friends instead of fulfill their role. They man,

  947. they wanted the easy rout. They mean to get them

  948. to eighteen and out of the house. They man, they

  949. wanted at least a man of conflict. And now there's

  950. a they mean a whole generation. They man that isn't

  951. responsible or accountable because mom and Dad refused They mean

  952. to do it God's way. They refuse to get under

  953. the load as the Leavites would have had to and

  954. bear their burdens and their responsibilities. It wasn't my words

  955. that said, hey man, you've got to chasing the other.

  956. They maen it even said they met a little bit

  957. of description there.

  958. With a rod.

  959. I didn't say that, he men, but blessed God God's

  960. words said it. I know That's what I'm saying. The

  961. mindset of this generation, he's out of touch with God's word.

  962. They're out of touch with God's will. A man, if

  963. they say that's a view, I'll tell you one of

  964. the other it's lah for they're ever dying. They've been

  965. praise God ever living soul. The generation tells me, don't

  968. They've been over the spirit of this world every day

  969. of the week, and.

  970. Three times on Sunday.

  976. Hey?

  977. Amen? How can two walk together?

  978. Can two of them together except they be agreed, meaning

  979. your brother Philip's ideology and my difference. We're not trying

  980. to walk up. I'm out of step with him. I

  988. the word of God and the whole truth and capture

  989. of God.

  990. Aymen.

  992. the way God said. If you're out of step with

  993. out a step with Bethel, you're out of step with

  994. God's word. If you're out of step with a pastor,

  995. you're out of step with the spirit of Wait man,

  996. it it's your issue. May man, you're not walking together.

  997. Aymen in God, Blessed prais God, communication of holier thing.

  998. Thanks.

  999. I'm i hurry Genesis thirty two and thirty one. I'm

  1000. trying to hurry. And as he passed over Paneul, the

  1001. sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.

  1002. Jacob would never live another day in his life.

  1003. And step with anyone else.

  1004. The world around him would never walk at Jacob's gate,

  1005. and Jacob would never walk at the world's gate again.

  1006. I remember, there's a lot of people that come this morning, Brother.

  1007. Before then they tell us, Amen, I'm walking out of

  1008. step with you, but I'm still in tune.

  1009. Ain't no way, ain't no way.

  1010. Friend. Jacob got a touch from God and it changed

  1011. his walk. And there is somebody this morning that needs

  1012. a touch from God. It'll change your walk, it'll change

  1013. your talk, it'll change your thought process, Amen, and you'll

  1014. never wander again. I mean, why am I not getting this?

  1017. he led alivee. Amen, praise God, in tune with the Lord,

  1018. in tune with the word of God.

  1019. And what did God?

  1020. Somebody today would quit walking Amen, Amen the way.

  1021. They used to. There's a song that we used to sing. Amen.

  1022. One brother, I don't amen, talk so loud, and I

  1023. don't walk so proud.

  1024. I found the better way. Amen.

  1025. I got out of tune with pride. I got out

  1026. of cadence with the world. I got out of amen's

  1027. step with the devil. Amen, And now I walk in accord.

  1028. It's with the word of God.

  1029. I am in.

  1030. Tune with the spirit of a man. Praise God. There's

  1031. some people stand up men praise God. Mayn't God in

  1032. the more life or spiriting their soul? Theymen praise God

  1033. than the bomba on the street. Theymen this drink all night,

  1034. and you wonder and then why the service? They mean

  1035. feel a strain. Sometimes it's that they wasn't in tune

  1036. with God, they men. Sometimes it's that they didn't really pray.

  1037. They man praise God, and I thank God for everyone

  1038. that takes part of theymen in the beth of service.

  1039. They man the pastor calls on, has put in a

  1040. place where you can always tell they've prayed about what

  1041. to say. They been many times, brother Jacobs. They man

  1042. gets up here and says a couple of words. Amen,

  1043. And then the pastor gets up in priests and it's

  1044. right and stepha. They're stepping in time. They're walking in

  1045. the spirit. They been, May I ain't been many times?

  1046. Women.

  1047. Someone comes up and exhorts her, and it's right along

  1048. the lines of what God had for the service. Why

  1049. is that somebody walked in time?

  1050. Amen?

  1051. It was in tune with the spirit, man, and it

  1052. could be no different for you, amen. But it takes

  1053. effort on our part of Jacob wrestled. He said, that's

  1054. what I want, that's what I need. I need that

  1055. blessing God. I need that change. I need that work

  1056. of God in my life. Women, that I might walk

  1057. in the will of the Father and not fulfill the

  1058. lust of the flash a man. Amen, I'm coming to

  1059. a close verse number twenty one in closing. But as

  1060. for them whose heart walking after the heart of their

  1061. detestable things, why would you hold on to that? It's

  1062. literally detestable, it's disgusting, it's filthy, It makes others around

  1063. you despise you and look down on you. But then

  1064. they cling to it and say it makes me somebody,

  1065. My God, What a twisted mindset that's happening out there.

  1066. That's happening out there, Amen, Ephesians two and two. Wherein

  1067. in times past you walked according to the course of

  1068. this world, according to the Prince of the power of

  1069. the air. The spirit that now worketh in the children

  1070. of disobedience, there is a spirit that caused Hitler youth

  1071. to walk and sink. There's a spirit that's causing, Amen,

  1072. all these other movements. Amen, who can get their whole

  1073. life consumed with save the trees? Seriously, But they do,

  1074. brother Philip. They get so consumed that they've spit and

  1075. ripped mind in your faces off over a tree. They'd

  1076. save a rabbit, Amen, while somebody guts a little old

  1077. baby out here and an abortion clinic. What causes them

  1078. to walk and to dance to that tune? It's the

  1079. pied piper, It's that old slew foot.

  1080. Amen.

  1081. It is amen, that one, that spirit that worketh in

  1082. the children of disobedience. The warning this morning is if

  1083. you're stepping in time with them, you're stepping in time

  1084. with him.

  1085. Amen.

  1086. It's not gonna take anything for the Antichrist to blow

  1087. through your life.

  1088. Amen. And you're gonna fall on your amen knees and

  1089. say amen, he is the Christ. Amen.

  1090. You'll be consumed so quickly when you walk according to

  1091. the spirit of this world. But ask for them, Amen,

  1092. burst Umber twenty one of our golden texts. But ask

  1093. for them whose heart walking after the heart of their

  1094. detestable things and their abominations. I will recompense their way

  1095. on their own heads. Saith God, say God. In this

  1096. verse we begin to see the recopense, depending recompence of

  1097. the wicked. It hovers over everyone's head that walks, Amen,

  1098. after their own desires.

  1099. Amen. For you so to the wind, and you reap

  1100. the whirlwind.

  1101. You sow to destruction, you sow the pride of life,

  1102. and in the end it wrends you, it destroys you.

  1103. Amen.

  1104. But now have God set the members, every one of them,

  1105. in the body as it pleased him. If you're in

  1106. the true body, God puts you in your place. And

  1107. I can assure you Amen, there is no better place

  1108. for you.

  1109. There is no perfect place for you. Amen.

  1110. If you see a church member a man that seems

  1111. like they just don't go with God and the Spirit.

  1112. Make no mistake. God didn't put them there. They're out

  1113. of step with the Spirit. For God has fitly joined

  1114. together the bride of Christ. If you see someone that

  1115. struggles every Sunday morning, every Wednesday, it's real simple. I

  1116. don't have to question it, and you don't. They need

  1117. a new heart. It's real simple. Amen, in that person, Amen,

  1118. you better be careful taking spiritual counsel of that person.

  1119. You better be careful, Amen, listening to their voice above

  1120. the spirit. Amen, Because if they are not walking according

  1121. to the spirit, Amen, you are amen, literally opening the

  1122. door to the devil. Amen, in his spirit, that they

  1123. march in time to cowbod of whosh about you tae

  1124. ye by by huskle by da da day. When you

  1125. walk in your way, and then when you choose your path,

  1126. when you cling to your detestable things and men praise God.

  1127. When you are prone to step up, even out of

  1128. time and out of order with the spirit and man,

  1129. there is a heart issue at work. Remem brother Jesse,

  1130. would you come get us a song this morning? I mean,

  1131. I've tried to deliver my heart to you this morning

  1132. now Proverbs twenty five at nineteen inclosing comfidense and an

  1133. unfaithful man in time of trouble. It's like a broken

  1134. tooth and a foot out a joint. Why don't I

  1135. get used? And I don't think anybody questions this. Let

  1136. me just slide that in there from me. Why don't

  1137. God a man annoint me to sing? Why don't I

  1138. feel have you been faithful? Have you been abounding in

  1139. the work of truth? Have you been abounding in the

  1140. love of the Father? Or did your weekly walk look

  1141. no different than Bible lawns. Many come to God's house

  1142. and want God to use them, and they.

  1143. Have it been usable.

  1144. A man when the pastor did call on them, the

  1145. service felt this pastor priests a message and it is it.

  1146. It's something that the man that haunts me to prayer

  1147. in a good way.

  1148. Raw oysters every.

  1149. Time I've got to preach, and then I think of

  1150. that unseasoned word, and then that word that just just

  1151. wasn't right. Apples of golden, pictures of silver and man,

  1152. praise God. God can use you a man in the streets. Amen,

  1153. if you would be faithful, God can use you on

  1154. the job if you'd prove yourself, But why would he

  1155. call on you? And then you go out of line,

  1156. and you get out of the spirit, and you not

  1157. follow the word of God and the will God in

  1158. that conversation, and all of a sudden it turned about

  1159. you and your kingdom, and you slay a soul in

  1160. a moment.

  1161. It's happened by many.

  1162. This depicts also those who are never in tune, but

  1163. somehow always in step with the world.

  1164. And man, praise God.

  1165. Are you asked not to testify, to sing, to say something,

  1166. to take on a ministry in the church, and then

  1167. because you'd never be in tune? And Man, I hope

  1168. that's not the case, Ezekiel, would we go on to

  1169. proclaim some words that would be re uttered by the

  1170. Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Ezekiel twelve and two said,

  1171. son of Man, thou dwellest in the midst of a

  1172. rebellious house, which have eyes to see and see not,

  1173. they have ears to hear, and hear not, For they

  1174. are a rebellious house. If it's taken you five years

  1175. to line up with the word of God, rebellion is

  1176. your issue. If it's taken you Amen, praise God even

  1177. a month Amen.

  1178. They get a message amen.

  1179. Or or a moral or an instruction that has been taught.

  1180. Amen.

  1181. A rebellion Amen is at work for the spirit of God.

  1182. Amen.

  1183. It speaks to them and they know the voice another

  1184. they're not going to follow.

  1185. That's the in tune individuals.

  1186. A Remember there's too many that are coming to church, Amen,

  1187. and they're completely out of touch and out of tune.

  1188. A man, first, if you would stand all over the

  1189. house this morning we're closing. First, Corinthians fourteen and forty said,

  1190. let all things be done decently and in order.

  1191. What of you, Amen?

  1192. Have you ever thought of your individual part to play

  1193. in the service? Why do you put any less prayer

  1194. into it than the past?

  1195. Does this sermon?

  1196. What of your part and role to play in the

  1197. altar service? Why is it any less spirit led than

  1198. the pastor and the altar service? Why are we not

  1199. walking in tune when God says you should.

  1200. Pray for that one.

  1201. When God says you should, Amen, Amen, have a burden

  1202. and carry Amen, this this burden and this cross for me. Ame,

  1203. it's overlooked because we're not in tune. There is much

  1204. for all of us, and I confess, Amen, I'm preaching

  1205. to myself this morning.

  1206. I want to be sensitive to the Spirit.

  1207. I want to be in touch and in tune and

  1208. in great grace and great power is what I desire.

  1209. There should be no liberties taken that wouldn't Amen normally

  1210. be taken.

  1211. Amen. For this is out of order. I mustlide that

  1212. in there. Amen. We have a wonderful church. Amen.

  1213. But we used to have Amen as soon as aball

  1214. and they felt Amen, they could get by with something.

  1215. They hobbled them little selves right out of the spirit.

  1216. They had no power in the church knew it.

  1217. Amen.

  1218. I wonder if anyone this morning would like to ben say, Lord,

  1219. I want to be in tune with you, even if

  1220. it takes a new heart. I want to walk according

  1221. to thy will. Lord, I'll put myself aside. May bet,

  1222. I'll walk according to the Spirit. I've tried to preach

  1223. according to his words this morning.

  1224. Amen.

  1225. But I feel like there's somebody Amen, that is in

  1226. the very Amen, Praise God, the epicenter of a phony relationship.

  1227. They profess something that they do not possess. And then

  1228. there are others Amen, including myself, that it would do

  1229. us well. Amen to start being more sensitive to what

  1230. God would have us do.

  1231. We don't need the limelight to do God's work.

  1232. We don't need the whole church focused on us to

  1233. go Amen and do our part. It might be praying

  1234. for someone that God leads you. It might be a

  1235. simple walk around the church you're a hand raised. It

  1236. might be Amen on Tuesday, Amen, on your lunch break,

  1237. when God quickens you to pray. A man who knows

  1238. when God would talk and when God would work.

  1239. Amen.

  1240. But God is asking someone someone this morning, would you come?

  1241. Would you say, Lord, it's me in the need of prayer.

  1242. I need a different walk God, I've got to walk

  1243. according to your word.
